TED CRUZ IS A REAGAN REPUBLICAN? He's a Tea Bagger from the get-go!Not being from TX I don't know, was David Dewhurst any better?
That's fucking hilarious! Cruz is pure EVIL and purer STUPID!
Check THIS out...
That said, I think Cornyn is the biggest whore we've ever had representing Texas in the Senate. And that's a pretty robust list there.
He's been bought and paid for more than Hating Kayla! Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

We're losing Kay Bailey Hutchison, who has been one of the most effective advocates for Texas in the past two decades and who achieved that level of effectiveness by being a reasonable, principled and honorable servant of the people....democrats and republicans. And, in her place we get this blowhard Cruz.I agree Timmy. You are not going to like the near future, here...LOL cry baby cry
And, using Texas as a measuring stick for which way the wind is blowing in the rest of the country is misguided, at best. Dewhurst is about as conservative as they come, and has been for years. But, he comes from that generation of politicians who remember what it was like to actually work with members of the party across the aisle to try to get things done. More and more, that doesn't work in the Republican party. In order to satisfy the extremists, like the whackadoos on here....you have to be extreme. Originally Posted by timpage

I don't know if she supported a lot of the horrible fiscal policies but I suspect she did. I am tired of those that think compromising us into fiscal servitude is acceptable. Cruz may be an asshole when all is said and done but at least give him the chance to prove himself worthy. If he is not we can toss his ass out in the next primary.

The only way he gets tossed out is in the next general, SIX YEARS from now. This was the biggest mistake Texas voters have made in a long history of stupidity. Originally Posted by Yssup RiderIf Cruz keeps his nose clean and doesn't embarrass himself with public activities, in six years he will be re-elected if he wants to be. The demographics are on his side in Texas, and they will be stronger in the next cycle for him.
